The best a VP can do is sure up a Candidates base and not hurt them in the General.
You admit that she is basically the only reason most Republicans voted for McCain. And you have yet to provide any statistics that show Palin cost McCain net votes.
So she fulfilled her part of the Bargain as VP. It was John “The Fundamentals are strong” McCain who could not pull his ass over the finish line.
I never said she cost McCain net votes.
I never even implied it.
I just said that whatever she brought to the table against 0bama, it wasn’t enough.
It wasn’t enough in 2008 and it won’t be enough in 2012.
